Compostable Paper Packaging

Use this guide to connect the material or finish direction to real product structures before sampling. The right choice depends on packed-product fit, artwork, hand-feel, retail handling, and repeat-order expectations.

How to use it

  • Choose the product structure before locking a finish
  • Check whether the finish affects fold, wrap, closure, or window behavior
  • Confirm sample type when texture, foil, lamination, or print color is critical
